I'm a simple guy who love trying new things and solving challenging problems. And so, it should come as no surprise that I enjoy playing the guitar, football(soccer) and ice skating. I'm an avid reader and have read books from Asimov and Vonnegut to Poe. My list of books to read tend to grow at an exponential rate. (One day I'll have an equation for it). I like playing parlor games such as chess and bridge where it's fun counting cards and moves and taking the human element into consideration. I am no Von Neumann but it doesn't hurt to try :)
